The Hungarian and later Berlin-based painter Ferenc Paczka created this painting around 1912, depicting the portrait of a Jewish bride. Executed in an impressionist manner the bride appears in a three-quarter portrait, placed in front of a scenic background looking slightly towards the viewer. Her hair is adorned with a wreath of white flowers, while the whole composition is characterized by a slightly impasto brushwork in predominantly green, delicate to dark colors. Ferenc Paczka created here a lyrical portrait of a woman with particular expressiveness. Signed lower right 'Paczka Ferenc'.
